came with this note:
I used to go over to my neighbor’s house and make german cookies right around Christmastime every year. They moved to California straight from Germany after WWII and paid for their house in cash. They lived across the street from me and quickly became my “fake grandparents.” I called them Oma and Opa, which means Grandma and Grandpa in German. When I was little, I thought that was their real names. This picture was taken in their kitchen making another batch of Christmas cookies.
